"Yes, this is the Copyright Department." A very dedicated voice came from the other end of the phone. Japanese English is really weird.
"It's like this. I'm Bilibili from Huaxia. We have just established a website and would like to purchase the broadcasting rights for some of your animations."
There's no need to be polite in this matter. Just get straight to the point and talk about the price. If you can't negotiate the price, then negotiate again.
"Bili bili? Are you Mr. Ye Geye?" the other party asked.
"Yes." Ye Ge was stunned.
"Our president has specifically told me that we have already drafted the copyright contract. Can you give me an email address? We will send it to you."
"Ok, thanks."
Ye Ge sent an email address and then hung up the phone.
Soon, Ye Ge received a contract from Fangwen Society in his mailbox.
The contract includes the copyrights of four anime: "Hina Sketches", "K-ON!", "Kana Diary", and "GA Art Department Art Design Class".
The most famous one among them, K-ON!, costs 25, which is not low but not high either.
This is mainly because "K-ON!" is an April series and it is already July now. It is not a seasonal comic, so the price is relatively low, but its popularity makes its price higher.
The others are three animations, including the July new show "GA Art Department Art Design Class", which totals 20.
The price was very reasonable, even a little low, and Ye Ge planned to accept the condition.
Afterwards, Ye Ge called several companies and purchased the broadcasting rights.
This includes Kyoto Animation's animated work "CLANNAD", which was adapted from Key's game of the same name.
There are also "AIR" and "Kanon".
There are also A-1 Pictures' "Black Butler" and ASCII Media Works' "A Certain Magical Index"
Ye Ge even successfully obtained the broadcasting rights for the April 2010 new anime "Angel Beats!" for 4 yuan.
It was four o'clock in the afternoon, only an hour and a half had passed.
When Ye Ge put down his phone, the copyright fee totaling three million had already been negotiated.
Ye Ge found that his communication was very smooth, and there was almost no negotiation process. The other party directly gave a reasonable and low price.
Ye Ge fell into deep thought, feeling something was not right.
Ye Ge discovered something.
I seemed to be unaware of it.
I had my first bite of soft rice.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 98 Dad, what's wrong with you? Say something, Dad?
In the dormitory, Tang Zhiyan tapped the table lightly with her slender index finger as she looked at the computer on the desk.
Not long ago, Tang Zhiyan went to the school gate to pick up her mother.
But his mother was missing and no one knew where she had gone. She didn't even answer the phone. Tang Zhiyan didn't care anymore and went straight back to the dormitory.
In comparison.
Tang Zhiyan looked at the emails on the desk, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
All of these emails were forwarded from Aunt Chen and were responses from animation companies in the island countries.
This means that Ye Ge has already contacted the animation clubs in the island country.
When Tang Zhiyan sent Ye Ge the contact information of various animation clubs in the island country, Tang Zhiyan had already made all the arrangements.
As long as Ye Ge makes the contact, some animation companies will give a relatively low price for the sake of their own group's face.
Although the price is relatively low, it is very reasonable.
In this case, it would be difficult for Ye Ge to refuse.
And as long as Ye Ge refuses, it means there must be something wrong with him.
After all, how could a normal person refuse these reasonably priced contracts?
If Ye Ge doesn't refuse, that would be even easier.
As a friend, I did you a small favor.
Well, as a friend, will you do me a small favor in the future?
You've helped me again, so it's not too much for me to help you again, right?
After a while, won’t everyone be familiar with each other?
After you get familiar with each other, it would be fine to have more contact, such as having meals together.
For Tang Zhiyan, it is imperative to figure out the curiosity behind Ye Ge.
Moreover, Tang Zhiyan felt that even if she finally figured it out, Ye Ge really didn't have any secrets, so she wouldn't be at a loss.
Tang Zhiyan felt that Ye Ge was a really good partner. He had a maturity that surpassed that of a college student and had a unique vision.
So at worst, we can just have a simple business partnership, a mutually beneficial and win-win situation.
With a happy mood, Tang Zhiyan planned to call her mother again to ask where she was.
He didn't answer any calls before.
However, before Tang Zhiyan made the call, another call came in.
"Hello, Dad." Tang Zhiyan answered the phone.
Tang Wei's laughter came from the other end of the phone:
"Zhiyan, I talked to your Uncle Ma, and he said that Penguin does have a project called "League of Legends", and the game department of Penguin attaches great importance to this project.
But your Uncle Ma is willing to give this project to you, which can be regarded as a kind of support for the younger generation.
By then, your uncle will also help you communicate more with Riot Games.
You can bring some gifts to visit your Uncle Ma in Shenzhen some other day.
Your Uncle Ma even praised you for your sharp vision.
He thinks the "League of Legends" project is very promising.
But then again, Penguin is keeping this project very secretive, just to prevent its peers from getting there first. How did you know about this?"
Hearing his father's answer, Tang Zhiyan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said:
"I have a friend who likes games very much. He told me that there is a newly established company in the United States. The main creators all came here from Dota. I have been paying attention to it.
I saw the news about the game League of Legends, and then I heard that their company’s project called League of Legends was good.”
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, your classmate is really good, and has a good taste. But do you girls also play games? There are not many girls who play games, right?"
"It's not a girl, it's a boy."
"Oh, a man."
Tang Wei nodded and then responded.
But after the response, there was silence on the other end of the phone for a while.
"Huh? A man?!"
Immediately afterwards, a burst of surprise was heard from Tang Zhiyan's cell phone.
"Dad, why are you so loud? My ears can't stand it." Tang Zhiyan took the phone away with disdain and turned on the speaker. "Didn't I say before? I want to bring a man to see grandpa? It's him."
On the other end of the phone, Tang Wei clutched his chest tightly, feeling that his sweetheart was about to be snatched away by someone else: "My dear daughter, don't scare dad. Weren't you joking before?"
Tang Zhiyan blinked: "Who said I was joking?"
"." There was a long silence on the other end of the phone.
"Dad, what's wrong with you? Speak, Dad?"
In the boys' dormitory, Ye Ge fell into deep thought after realizing that he had fallen into a trap.
Ye Ge found that it was wrong for him to refuse Zhiyan's favor. If he accepted it, Zhiyan would have more opportunities to get close to him in the future.
In the end, Ye Ge chose to accept it.
According to the previous analysis, I will treat cigarettes as ordinary people.
I just don't believe how long Cigarettes can maintain their curiosity about me.
So Ye Ge chose to take on this "soft rice" and then help out in return.
After coming to his senses, Ye Ge downloaded these contracts directly into a USB drive. After printing these contracts, they would be mailed to their respective companies.
Once you send these contracts over, you can directly connect those animations to Bilibili.
Station B can now officially open for business.
As for whether Bilibili should do some promotional advertising.
Ye Ge felt that it was necessary, so he started with college students.
Bilibili is positioned as a two-dimensional website for young people, so it is naturally based on young people.
And never underestimate the value and creativity of young people, it is limitless!
Carrying a dozen downloaded contracts, Ye Ge left the dormitory and planned to go to the school's entrepreneurship center to print them. It was cheap there, only five cents per piece of paper.
"what!!!"
When Ye Ge passed by a green garden behind the library, he heard a scream.
Ye Ge was so frightened that his whole body trembled.
Just when Ye Ge was about to turn around and look towards the source of the sound.
Suddenly, a person bumped directly into Ye Ge.
"Fuck!"
Ye Ge lost his balance and was knocked to the grass.
